I’m glad you expressed how disgusting it is for people to be hating their own faces for literally having hair that naturally grows on our skin. It’s ridiculous
If you can't see your facial hair, you effectively have no facial hair. If the only way anyone would know you have facial hair is if you spray it, just... don't do that? Ooh new marketing angle: dye the spray dark and market it to men and teens with patchy beards😂
Thank you so much for your comment on facial hair, G. I recently got diagnosed with PCOS and I never cared about my facial hair or even realized it was "too much" or no one even really told me anything about it. But my own goddamn gynaecologist told me to my face that I have too much hair near my sideburns which fades into the jawline area (one of the three criteria for diagnosing PCOS is excessive facial hair). I was so taken aback because this was an absolute emotional time for me as a fat person who has dealt so much shit from society and the medical system. I was literally diagnosed so late due to medical fatphobia. My sideburns are more of a hereditary thing because all the women in my family have thick hair everywhere along with our sideburns (w/o any hormonal imbalance) but even in a south Asian country, there's no saving us from eurocentric beauty ideals. Me not having absolutely little to no "visible" facial hair makes my hereditary thick natural hair a symptom of my PCOS instead of what it actually is, a fairly common south Asian genetic trait.
I hope your PCOS is manageable and people stop fat or hair shaming others. And yes many south Asians have thick hair and it is just wonderful. I hope nobody puts you in a place like this emotionally ever again.
I hope you are able to manage your PCOS. I know it's difficult, (my friend has it), but do you, never allow anyone to decide how you should feel. Blessings
that's so ugly for ur gyno to say! sideburns are soo gorgeous i love them on myself and i love them on other women! but even if they weren't attractive. if they were just a neutral aspect of our faces,(which they are) that'd be perfectly fine too!!
I don't even understand the hair-in-the-shower products. When you shampoo your hair, the hair that comes out of your head goes down the drain, so the product that is the most effective in preventing drain clogs is a hair-catcher that fits over the drain. This prevents having to get a plumber in to unclog your bathtub/shower drain. I clean mine after every shower. It's just wet hair, so really not icky unless you leave it for weeks. I cannot recommend a specific hair-catcher product, because drains come in different sizes, so you just have to measure and search for the right size. 😊 Gittemary, I am with you on all the products you named. Completely unnecessary. Good video. ♥
Exactly! I have so much hair fall in the shower that I always used to clog my drain, no chance of me catching all of that and sticking it to the wall before it goes down the drain, lol! So I just got a drain cover that collects all my hair and then I just pick it up at the end of the shower. Less gross than fishing it out of the drain also :)
@@caramelushca And the drain catcher that you put over the drain is an old invention that came out years ago. So, capitalism is the only reason for someone creating this unnecessary device!
Yep. I have a hair catcher over my drain and a little pedal bin directly next to the bath/shower. The last thing I do before stepping out of the shower is to empty it. I've never had to call out a plumber for a blocked drain. I just dump a kettle of water down all the plug holes once a week to get rid of the soap scum and it's good to go.
Omg, this facial hair spray made me so angry too! Noone had this idea that if something exists on/in our body, it... has an important purpose for us? If it hadn't, for 99% it would disappear in the evolution process! Jeez!
Thank you for calling out how damaging some of these products can be, not only to the environment but to the health and wellbeing of individuals 🖤. I'm extremely fortunate to be in a place where these types of skin products don't sink their claws into me, but I worry deeply for those, especially younger people, who are being made to feel so pressured by anything and everything online especially this capitalist rubbish. When will the misogyny end! 😭
Exactly. Unfortunately, I currently live in a place (much different than where I grew up), where no one cares about the planet, or much anything else meaningful- especially not changing misogyny :|
It’s funny the fact you have to buy a special spray in order to even see the hair on your face that you’re trying to remove because you’re ashamed of it… like hun nobody can even see or cares enough to look that hard! 😂
Spot on. If you have a visible mustache, beard, monobrow or whatever and it bothers you there are many different ways to get rid of it but the choice should depend on your skin type. If you can't notice it without a product to make it visible then you're deliberately giving yourself something to be bothered about. That's messed up. That's beyond 1st world problems. Go find something more constructive to care about.
as always, I so much appreciate you highlighting the community of people with disabilities in your intro. I used to think things were so awful and wasteful... and then a ton of shame came from those thoughts when I acquired a pretty severe disability... that once I accepted it, allowed me to look at sustainability differently. xoxxo from minnesota (in the us)
"It's your body, it's supposed to be that way!" THANK YOUUUU!! Honestly I feel like just accepting your body how it is (especially as a woman) is one of the most rebellious things you can do in such a consumerist society. Let's love our bodies just out of spite for capitalism 😈
Oh oh my personal " favourite" are the scrunchie holders and any container for hair bands, hair clippers, scrunchies... I HATE these products with a passion. I wanted to actually put all my hair accessories in a place, very neatly organised. I took a big, old mason jar ( from the 50s or even sooner , it is my grandaunt's) and a copper plate. It looks so aesthetic and I dare say more aesthetic than the plastic containers and hooks for hair accessories
For hairbands there is that wonderful thing that most people have almost one of is : your own wrist! If you lack wrists or you can't wear hairbands around your wrist, I think that the keychain hack is fabulous.
the fake rocks to hide your keys were a big thing around like 1990! I saw that and laughed so much because I hadn't seen it since I was a teenaged babysitter back then and "clever" families always had the same dang one - very obvious in their landscaped rock areas.
I’m not in the parts of the internet with this type of influencing, so I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos like this. I find it fascinating to see the type of crap influencers are advertising, while supporting you and not those influencers.
I have been angry frustrated about these things too especially the hair on a woman’s face or elsewhere ! I really appreciate you pointing these things out.
I have a "tub shroom" for catching hair in the shower, I tried a little metal sieve but if it's slightly elevated above the drain then water sits there and gets yucky pretty quick, the tub shroom allows for drainage and it lets you know it needs to be emptied when your shower doesn't drain as quickly lol a plastic amazon gadget I'm a bit ashamed to say that I LOVE!
i have the same but metal! bought a pack of 2, one in the kitchen sink, the other in the bath drain. like you say, a simple solution which saves your plumbing and prevents the pipes getting smelly. the key thing is it's being used and will survive for years to come - same for any object which proves it's worth :)
I have a carabiner clip on my keys. Makes it easy to quickly and easily add and remove stuff. I usually clip it to the handle of my purse, but hair bands definitely find their way on there. Key rocks and sculptures are really common where I live. They sell them at the hardware store. Most people who do this tend to just hide the key under a normal sculpture or a specific rock or under a candle or something. It’s always seemed like a bad idea to put something like that in the front yard. At least put it in the side or back yard where people won’t see you go collect or replace it and easily gain access to your key. May as well leave the door unlocked.
Overconsumption is literally insane these days, like sheep, following the herd 😢❤ And as a woman who has never eaten a single slice of toast in her life, I’m a 3 slice girl, I don’t have the patience for a posh one slice toaster 😂
Honestly the shower hair catcher would totally be something I use. Like I loose a lot of hair and I struggle to prevent them from sliding right into the swirl when throw in the shower. Also I often forget to collect them up after showering, and my homie complains a lot about that. The others I don't really find any use for though 😂
Yes! I was thinking the same thing with the plastic oil collector--it's gonna melt in hot oil! And I also thought, if she was cooking tofu she wouldn't be having that problem! Totally unnecessary.
After watching this video I suddenly feel the most environmentally conscious person in the world! :D - hair ties: am I the only one to use my own wrists to keep hair ties? - toaster: do people know that you can simply use a pan? There's no need to add another appliance in our kitchens!
I loved this video and agree with you on everything. This was crazy to see these items. Especially the one about the facial hair. My gosh. Why??? Disgusted by these companies and how they advertise. Well done, girl.
9:49 babies that don't have teeth yet... We don't realize it but the core of a strawberry is harder and with my 7mo old, when I was making her discover bits of fruits, those didn't go as easy as I thought... Doesn't make this a useful product though.
Does anyone else find the advertisements for full body deodorant similar to the facial hair spray to shame women? Like they never show men in these ads.
YES!!! Also love how the major culprit claims to have been inspired by patients who had medically driven odor (aka not run of the mill body smells) but now we all need it, lest we smell like a human. It’s about the same level of horror-hilarity as the bleach commercials warning us of the dreaded “body soil” on our sheets. Like, yes, this is why we launder our bed linens?
I am actually FOR an oil drainer, although not that one shown in this video. There are some dishes that are traditionally left ouside over night so the fat can solidify on top and then be scooped off. We can't really put it in the fridge because the pot is way too big. So my dad got an oil drainer that seperates the fat out of the sauce without using elictricity. It only gets use once per year (Christmas), but we've had it for years now - because it doesn't usually get cold enough around Christmas for the fat to solidify on top.
I’m not particularly hairy, but I do like getting dermaplaned anyway. Hair adds texture to makeup and it’s duller than skin. I don’t really get the spray product, though. I’d just do the whole face. And I’m in the minority of folks still using the occasional peel off mask which takes the vellus hair with it
I have to admit that I have on of those cleaning balls for my backpack 😂 But I actually had it for around 10 years and it still works. I just clean it regularly. But for sure you can live without it 🙈
I had gotten the hair catcher a few years back before trying to be zero waste, but I have to be honest it is amazing. I have curly hair and there is sooo much and it sticks everywhere, falls. This hooks it and makes de tangling so much less work. FWIW, I take it out when it’s full and throw it in my compost!
Hi Gittemary, the older you get the more facialhair you will have!! I just turned 65 so I know HAHA!! Shave them? Why should we? They will have their purpose I believe, what do you think? Indeed lots of not needed things around!! Thanks sweetie and warm greetz from an old (rebel) Pinkie
I actually would like the hair catcher 😂 as someone who has a medical condition that causes ridiculous hair loss even if I brush my hair before washing it, sticking it to the wall doesn't work for me becauae there's so much, so it stays stuck to me instead or clogs the drain
I have a skin graft on my face after a burn injury. The skin came from my leg. I legit have leg hair growing on my face, and even I don’t need weird sprays and to remove it!
I put my hair elastic around my wrist or in my pocket because I tend to misplace my keys 😂 I laughed out loud with that silicon elastic holder. Come on! 😅
So glad you targeted the shaming products. If you have to spray something special to see it, it’s not a “beard”. The older I get (>50), the thicker the fluff just in front of my ears gets. I do remove it because the only time it really comes to my attention is when my sunscreen starts balling up in that area. I draw the line at sunburn sideburns.
For years I didn't have a toaster and I just toasted bread in my air fryer. Now I have a toaster because our family is larger, but you can definitely get by without a toaster at all.
I bought a toaster after years of using the oven broiler and it has definitely been an improvement. It heats the house up less, I don't have to watch the toast the entire time and I don't have to flip the bread to get it toasted on both sides. And is small enough that it can go back into the cabinet when it is done
I am so guilty of having a cherry pitter, I do use it a ton during cherry season, it's not something the more conscious me would get now but I have it (it's metal at least) and I will use it til I die. 😂
Same. When cherry prices go down that one week in Summer, I try to buy as many pounds as I can. Then it’s a race to eat or process all of them before they go bad. I end up pitting and freezing or dehydrating a few gallons of cherries- not counting what I eat fresh. The pitter does make it easier. I use it only once a year, but I’ll be using it *every* year.
To be fair some people shave their peach fuzz bc their make up/sunscreen makes it way more visible and they do not like the look. Or some people use it bc their skincare can absorb better or to exfoliate. I totally get your point and I do despise the influencers who play up their disgust at their natural bodyhair to sell a product, but I also think that the practise of shaving your face is being criticised a bit too much. If you do it correctly and not out of disgust, there is no harm in it and ultimately it's a personal decission. Do whatever makes you feel good one way or the other :)
I have a dermal planer that is a reusable metal with replaceable blades, like a safety razor. The whole spray thing is baffling. I like to dermaplane, but yeah, the idea that it’s bad to have is deeply problematic.
The stupidest thing about the spray to make your facial hair visible so that you can remove it is that you literally didnt see it before you put on the spray.
Humans are mammals! Gasp! I've heard dermaplaning can be good to reduce acne because of the dead skin cell/exfoliating thing, so not against people using it. But the recent marketing is horrendous and wasteful. Especially considering there are better options for the environment and your skin
I would like to clarify for those suggesting that we need that “peach fuzz” or that it has some important evolutionary purpose, that not every characteristic in every living organism is important for the survival of that organism. All characteristics developed because of evolutionary pressures put on each species, but even when these pressures disappear, the characteristics won’t necessarily change unless there are new pressures which make those who have those characteristics less likely to survive. So, although there may be many negative effects of removing facial hair on the human face, that hair isn’t necessary for survival and doesn’t currently benefit us in any significant way. So suggesting to people that we shouldn’t remove the peach fuzz because it is important for human health or something of a similar nature, is just false. That being said, this trend is completely absurd because it adds to the grooming burden of women (which is already painfully time consuming and expensive), “fixing” something that they (nor anyone around them) wouldn’t have even noticed without this product. Many women of certain ethnicities have been removing facial hair for many decades because it grows in much thicker and darker than most, and I can totally understand taking time and spending money on trying to fit into current feminine ideals given how much benefits it gives to women when they fit them well. In the transphobic world we live in currently, this can also help women who might be mistaken as trans avoid harassment or even assault. So, as someone with mostly “invisible” facial hair, I don’t think it’s my place to criticize women with very visible facial hair when they remove it. But the product is specifically designed for people like me, who cannot see their facial hair, making it especially absurd. I hope this trend has a swift death.
im biracial and my peach fuzz is dark brown and is very noticeable. i got bullied for it as a kid till i started shaving it :( it makes me look like a have a mustache, but i just use the same cleanser i wash my face with to shave it off.
I think the face hair identifying spray is silly but its even worse when you think they're wasting money on something that is probably an overpriced dry shampoo spray
My jaw DROPPED when I saw the bobble holder... What happened to putting one on your wrist? Also, I've seen those fake rocks before, I've even seen them used outside apartments. Indoor apartments. With no natural rocks outside, just the plastic one. It feels like having a sign saying "Please rob my apartment!"
That bag cleaning ball is actually a knock off of a german product! The german version is made from 100 recyclable materials and is infinitely reusable!
I'm old enough to remember when one of the first "needs" were created to be "solved" by a particular product; feminine deodorant spray for your private area.
I was about to comment that I finally got a good ad that's for Wonky box food rescue in NZ, bonus it's a fun ad so it's easy to watch. Hopefully keep getting it 🙏
It's such a pity that all the little companies are owned by two different companies - BlackRock being one of them. What a shame that only two men own the world.
Removing facial peach fuzz is just convenient in order to have your complexion makeup products go more smoothly on your face. I do that all the time. But maaaan, to shame anyone for having the peach fuzz is deeply inappropriate.
I’ve been abused for having body hair. I have PCOS which can cause excess hair growth. Lucky the mo although gets too long and thick is blonde. Do get thick red hair trying to form a beard. Those I pluck out as it’s irritating. Don’t know how guys put up with it. My face is too sensitive. Then I get facial hair that is slightly longer than normal facial hair like bum fluff (teens boys starting puberty). It’s easy to treat with dermal plaining. I however have a vision impairment and can’t see well so I use a little electric blade that causes less damage to the skin. It runs on 1 AAA battery but it lasts ages I got it at the dollar store and had it for several years it’s still fine. I don’t use it all the time only when the hair gets too long and annoying. Those sprays are harmful and you are inhaling it too which is bad for the lungs. There have been cases where people have died spraying aerosols in a room on the body it’s that toxic. They are not meant for the face. Unless you have a vision impairment of an issue like mine you really don’t need this. For those who do use an electric shaver then use shaving skin aftercare. It’s not your fault it’s just the way your body works. Some rare girls are brave and wear that beard with pride and care for it. This isn’t always possible especially if it’s uneven. You’re not an abomination you are beautiful and no one has the right to abuse you for what’s your unique traits. Some people have more hair than others, male or female. That’s a part of diversity. On the toaster issue. The simplest way it to put some butter or alternative on both sides of your toast then toast each side on a fry pan on the stove. The butter/ oils will give flavour and help it cook way better than any thing you will get from a toaster. Anyone who has a cat or pet with fine hair that floats in the air will love this. Nothing worse when that dander gets in the toaster. You can never get rid of it and will make you vomit. Fry pan. You don’t need to use any oils if you don’t want. Cuts down waste quick.

As soon as I saw the portable hair bobbles holder I was like yeah, I have a portable one... my wrist? a bag? a pocket?
Right! That product isn't solving an existing problem, we already have so many ways of carrying hair ties
The war on peach fuzz makes me so sad. I love my peach fuzz and always will.
I’ve been tipping my handbags upside down to clean them for years and have not suffered any ill effects from doing so 😁
The only ill effect I’ve had is when my aim is off and I dump crumbs on the floor, but that’s fully user error 😂
Not gonna lie I was tempted to buy this product😬 so happy I didn’t!
If you can't see your facial hair, you effectively have no facial hair.
If the only way anyone would know you have facial hair is if you spray it, just... don't do that?

Tips to avoid hair in your drain.
Brush your hair before washing them. Then braid them. They can be washed like that and avoid tangles.
I have a "tub shroom" for catching hair in the shower, I tried a little metal sieve but if it's slightly elevated above the drain then water sits there and gets yucky pretty quick, the tub shroom allows for drainage and it lets you know it needs to be emptied when your shower doesn't drain as quickly lol a plastic amazon gadget I'm a bit ashamed to say that I LOVE!

You are possibly one of the most charming youtubers. Your facial expressions are hilarious
Thank you for this video, especially what you said about the last product.
I’m not particularly hairy, but I do like getting dermaplaned anyway. Hair adds texture to makeup and it’s duller than skin. I don’t really get the spray product, though. I’d just do the whole face. And I’m in the minority of folks still using the occasional peel off mask which takes the vellus hair with it
What a great first product to talk about. Just. Wow. Wow. Ew ew ew ew ew
I have to admit that I have on of those cleaning balls for my backpack 😂 But I actually had it for around 10 years and it still works. I just clean it regularly. But for sure you can live without it 🙈
I had gotten the hair catcher a few years back before trying to be zero waste, but I have to be honest it is amazing. I have curly hair and there is sooo much and it sticks everywhere, falls. This hooks it and makes de tangling so much less work. FWIW, I take it out when it’s full and throw it in my compost!
Hi Gittemary, the older you get the more facialhair you will have!! I just turned 65 so I know HAHA!!
Shave them? Why should we? They will have their purpose I believe, what do you think?
Indeed lots of not needed things around!! Thanks sweetie and warm greetz from an old (rebel) Pinkie
I also like the idea to put your hairband over your drinking bottle
As a child my parents had a hollowed out rock to hide a key in! Eventually it broke (after about 20 years) and I bought them a key vault
yay new video :D
Word. Love you.
This is so hilarious!
I actually would like the hair catcher 😂 as someone who has a medical condition that causes ridiculous hair loss even if I brush my hair before washing it, sticking it to the wall doesn't work for me becauae there's so much, so it stays stuck to me instead or clogs the drain
I have a skin graft on my face after a burn injury. The skin came from my leg. I legit have leg hair growing on my face, and even I don’t need weird sprays and to remove it!
I put my hair elastic around my wrist or in my pocket because I tend to misplace my keys 😂 I laughed out loud with that silicon elastic holder. Come on! 😅
So glad you targeted the shaming products. If you have to spray something special to see it, it’s not a “beard”.
The older I get (>50), the thicker the fluff just in front of my ears gets. I do remove it because the only time it really comes to my attention is when my sunscreen starts balling up in that area. I draw the line at sunburn sideburns.
Beautiful earrings!❤
Thank you ✨
For years I didn't have a toaster and I just toasted bread in my air fryer. Now I have a toaster because our family is larger, but you can definitely get by without a toaster at all.
I bought a toaster after years of using the oven broiler and it has definitely been an improvement. It heats the house up less, I don't have to watch the toast the entire time and I don't have to flip the bread to get it toasted on both sides. And is small enough that it can go back into the cabinet when it is done
wedding prefection impact pls!!
I am so guilty of having a cherry pitter, I do use it a ton during cherry season, it's not something the more conscious me would get now but I have it (it's metal at least) and I will use it til I die. 😂
Same. When cherry prices go down that one week in Summer, I try to buy as many pounds as I can. Then it’s a race to eat or process all of them before they go bad. I end up pitting and freezing or dehydrating a few gallons of cherries- not counting what I eat fresh. The pitter does make it easier. I use it only once a year, but I’ll be using it *every* year.
Alton Brown is a big supporter of having multi-use tools and not owning too many gadgets, but his one exception is a cherry pitter
The „ew“ to facial hair is like the scene from mean girls where they all get in the mirror just to shame themselves
Thank you
To be fair some people shave their peach fuzz bc their make up/sunscreen makes it way more visible and they do not like the look. Or some people use it bc their skincare can absorb better or to exfoliate. I totally get your point and I do despise the influencers who play up their disgust at their natural bodyhair to sell a product, but I also think that the practise of shaving your face is being criticised a bit too much. If you do it correctly and not out of disgust, there is no harm in it and ultimately it's a personal decission. Do whatever makes you feel good one way or the other :)
I have a dermal planer that is a reusable metal with replaceable blades, like a safety razor. The whole spray thing is baffling. I like to dermaplane, but yeah, the idea that it’s bad to have is deeply problematic.
The stupidest thing about the spray to make your facial hair visible so that you can remove it is that you literally didnt see it before you put on the spray.
Exactly! If we can't see it, nobody else can either.
Makes no sense to be self conscious about something in your physical appearance that literally isn't even visible
Lovely video!
Humans are mammals! Gasp!
I've heard dermaplaning can be good to reduce acne because of the dead skin cell/exfoliating thing, so not against people using it. But the recent marketing is horrendous and wasteful. Especially considering there are better options for the environment and your skin
I would like to clarify for those suggesting that we need that “peach fuzz” or that it has some important evolutionary purpose, that not every characteristic in every living organism is important for the survival of that organism. All characteristics developed because of evolutionary pressures put on each species, but even when these pressures disappear, the characteristics won’t necessarily change unless there are new pressures which make those who have those characteristics less likely to survive.
So, although there may be many negative effects of removing facial hair on the human face, that hair isn’t necessary for survival and doesn’t currently benefit us in any significant way. So suggesting to people that we shouldn’t remove the peach fuzz because it is important for human health or something of a similar nature, is just false.
That being said, this trend is completely absurd because it adds to the grooming burden of women (which is already painfully time consuming and expensive), “fixing” something that they (nor anyone around them) wouldn’t have even noticed without this product. Many women of certain ethnicities have been removing facial hair for many decades because it grows in much thicker and darker than most, and I can totally understand taking time and spending money on trying to fit into current feminine ideals given how much benefits it gives to women when they fit them well. In the transphobic world we live in currently, this can also help women who might be mistaken as trans avoid harassment or even assault. So, as someone with mostly “invisible” facial hair, I don’t think it’s my place to criticize women with very visible facial hair when they remove it. But the product is specifically designed for people like me, who cannot see their facial hair, making it especially absurd. I hope this trend has a swift death.
I guess rich people only eat one piece of toast 🍞
and don't share toast with anyone
@@inspiredby624 To be fair he did break the toast in two😂
im biracial and my peach fuzz is dark brown and is very noticeable. i got bullied for it as a kid till i started shaving it :( it makes me look like a have a mustache, but i just use the same cleanser i wash my face with to shave it off.
14:55 there’s a musician named ladybeard and he’s the furthest thing from disgusting i ever seen
They are indeed making our lives harder with all these fake problems for sure.
I think the face hair identifying spray is silly but its even worse when you think they're wasting money on something that is probably an overpriced dry shampoo spray
Just what we needed, another product telling women any hair that's not above the eyes must be removed
I don't puty hairs to the shower wall 🙈 I didn't know it was a thing 🙈🙈😂 they just fall down but maybe is because I don't brush them in the shower
the fact that they need to use a spray to actually see the facial hair makes me wonder why the f they would shave off something they can't even see :D
That toaster takes up a lot of counter space.
We need more deinfluencing. These constant new products or trends are too much for me 😕
My jaw DROPPED when I saw the bobble holder... What happened to putting one on your wrist?
Also, I've seen those fake rocks before, I've even seen them used outside apartments. Indoor apartments. With no natural rocks outside, just the plastic one. It feels like having a sign saying "Please rob my apartment!"
It's so much easier to plaster my hair to the wall. hahaha
That bag cleaning ball is actually a knock off of a german product! The german version is made from 100 recyclable materials and is infinitely reusable!
Good luck finding that rock when you're drunk
My thoughts exactly
❤
I'm old enough to remember when one of the first "needs" were created to be "solved" by a particular product; feminine deodorant spray for your private area.
That sounds like a recipe for a yeast infection 🫢
Obligatory unskippable Shein/Temu/otherspawnofsatan ad and I’m ready to watch the video 🥲
RIP 😞
I was about to comment that I finally got a good ad that's for Wonky box food rescue in NZ, bonus it's a fun ad so it's easy to watch. Hopefully keep getting it 🙏
My 6 year old daughter said that she have hair on arms. 😢 I said it is OK. It is normal.
A safe lock for keys would be better or spare keys to a neighbour. If u lock yourself out x better than a fake rock.
Hey, maybe you should blur your keys cause people can make 3D copies from an image of them 😬
Oh wow, never realized that!
Imagine living in Denmark and getting that plastic stone swept away by the wind with your keys in it😆
Instantly 😂
It’s like Marketing and R&D depts have too much time in their hands these days or just some silly quota to meet
Lol, tell me you have too much money, without telling me you have too much money = Mitsubishi 1 slice toaster.
Me too😂
It's such a pity that all the little companies are owned by two different companies - BlackRock being one of them. What a shame that only two men own the world.
Removing facial peach fuzz is just convenient in order to have your complexion makeup products go more smoothly on your face. I do that all the time. But maaaan, to shame anyone for having the peach fuzz is deeply inappropriate.
I’ve been abused for having body hair.
I have PCOS which can cause excess hair growth.
Lucky the mo although gets too long and thick is blonde. Do get thick red hair trying to form a beard. Those I pluck out as it’s irritating. Don’t know how guys put up with it. My face is too sensitive.
Then I get facial hair that is slightly longer than normal facial hair like bum fluff (teens boys starting puberty).
It’s easy to treat with dermal plaining. I however have a vision impairment and can’t see well so I use a little electric blade that causes less damage to the skin. It runs on 1 AAA battery but it lasts ages I got it at the dollar store and had it for several years it’s still fine.
I don’t use it all the time only when the hair gets too long and annoying.
Those sprays are harmful and you are inhaling it too which is bad for the lungs.
There have been cases where people have died spraying aerosols in a room on the body it’s that toxic. They are not meant for the face.
Unless you have a vision impairment of an issue like mine you really don’t need this.
For those who do use an electric shaver then use shaving skin aftercare.
It’s not your fault it’s just the way your body works.
Some rare girls are brave and wear that beard with pride and care for it. This isn’t always possible especially if it’s uneven.
You’re not an abomination you are beautiful and no one has the right to abuse you for what’s your unique traits.
Some people have more hair than others, male or female.
That’s a part of diversity.
On the toaster issue.
The simplest way it to put some butter or alternative on both sides of your toast then toast each side on a fry pan on the stove. The butter/ oils will give flavour and help it cook way better than any thing you will get from a toaster. Anyone who has a cat or pet with fine hair that floats in the air will love this.
Nothing worse when that dander gets in the toaster. You can never get rid of it and will make you vomit.
Fry pan. You don’t need to use any oils if you don’t want.
Cuts down waste quick.
Bizarre comment, but can hair be composted?
Yes
